I was in the townhouse of Lucas Lebrick, the nobleman who had come to my aid when I’d fled the Kingdom of Haldoria.

Two cups of coffee settled on the table that separated us. They’d long grown cold, but there were no maids in the room to replace them for us. Lucas had cleared the room so no one would overhear our sensitive conversation.

We had been discussing the conflict that broke out a few months ago following the Sarjan attack on the Empire, which my idiotic ex-fiancé orchestrated.

The Empire and the kingdom had been at odds for a very long time. Several years ago, both countries had signed an armistice, putting an end to a dreadful war that had caused extensive damage to them. That meant frontal military interventions were out of the question.

However, Friede’s desperation for glory to stop his popularity from hitting rock bottom led him to misguidedly use one of his nation’s vassal states, the Kingdom of Sarjas, to start a proxy war. He then joined the conflict himself, under the pretext of helping the Sarjan.

As a result, the Kingdom of Sarjas met its demise. Friede had run back to the kingdom, tail between his legs, and his knight, Robert, was executed after committing mass murder—the first step of my revenge.

“It seems like the kingdom is busy cleaning up after Robert Arty and concealing the death of his father, the former Knight Commander,” said Lucas. “Their relationships with their other vassal states also became strained after they abandoned the Kingdom of Sarjas to its fate. They’re trying their hardest to salvage what they can.”

“I see,” I responded. “You seem to have their situation entirely figured out. I should have expected as much of the Empire’s spies.”

“You’re one to speak. And you do know our intelligence operatives have become far more efficient after you fed them confidential information, right?”

I laughed and smiled at Lucas.

“Good grief... Do you even know how puzzled I was when Robert disappeared out of the blue after we left Sarjas?” he continued.

“I apologize for my belated report.”

“I wish you’d told me beforehand. After all, that was your plan from the start, was it not?”

“It was. The ability I used on him has its fair share of limitations, forcing me to keep him by my side for a fixed amount before I could set my plan in motion.”

“You truly are the one person I never want to face as an enemy.”

“Don’t worry. I promised to let you reap the benefits of Haldoria’s downfall, did I not? I shall stay true to my word, Count Lucas.”

The Yutear Empire absorbed the Kingdom of Sarjas after defeating it, and it later became a region. Half of it fell under the direct control of the Emperor, but he offered the other half to Lucas as a reward for being the victor. Lucas was also awarded a new peerage and became a count.

As for the former king of the Kingdom of Sarjas, Grint Sarjas became an administrator under Lucas still in charge of his nation under Lucas.
